We’ve added another granny square session to our crochet series. This session is for beginners as well as those who want to brush up on the granny square technique. Attendees are welcome to bring their own hooks, and all will have the option to bring supplies home for additional practice. 
During this session, we will also discuss our planned community granny square blanket project.

Crossroads

If you enjoy bluesy piano playing that hearkens back to Leon Russell and super-smart lyrics that will remind you of Tom Waits, then check out Scott Nisley's new album, "Line Cook's Blues". Nisley will perform cuts from the album in addition to new material on Thursday, September 12 at 6:00 p.m. at Crossroads in Garwood, located at 78 North Ave. There will be a $10 cover charge. Nisley's song "Moonlight Lover" has been featured multiple times on the radio show, "Mind Games with James" on Rutgers College Radio 90.3 The Core. James said of Nisley, "I just couldn't believe the sounds he was getting out of the keyboards and his vocals were absolutely fantastic....The production on it [the album] was mind-boggling...I'm very impressed and I'm not easily impressed." Nisley is an 18-year resident of Westfield, graduate of Westfield High School and Rutgers Newark.

The fall season of the Fanwood Performance Series opens on Sept. 14 with a double bill of singer-songwriters blending country, folk and contemporary styles.
Craig Bickhardt brings his guitar and the “eloquent, often bittersweet songs that have become his trademark” to Fanwood’s historic Carriage House. Bickhardt’s music reflects a life lived as a rock-band lead singer, a solo troubadour, a dedicated songwriter, a husband and father. Longtime series fans will remember his 2014 appearance on the same stage.
Lynne Hanson&nbsp;performs her “porch music with a little red dirt,” which has earned her the nickname “Canada’s own Queen of Americana.” Her poetic lyrics are delivered in a bluesy croon that has drawn comparisons to Lucinda Williams and Gillian Welch. Hanson’s 10th album, “Just a Poet,” was released in May.
Admission is $15 for adults, $10 for students and seniors – cash at the door. Reservations are strongly suggested, as seating is limited. RSVP to save seats by emailing <a href="mailto:fanwoodperformance@gmail.com" target="_blank">fanwoodperformance@gmail.com</a><a href="mailto:fanwoodperformance@gmail.com" target="_blank">.</a>
The Fanwood Performance Series, now in its 16th year, is a presentation of Mayor Colleen Mahr and the Fanwood Borough Cultural Arts Council. It is made possible in part by a HEART (History, Education, Arts Reaching Thousands) Grant from the Union County Board of County Commissioners.
